lot of people think if the cops don't read you your miranda rights, the case gets dismissed. that's not true. the only thing that happens is if you confess, the confession can't be used in the trial against you. if there's other evidence to convict you, you can still be convicted. so a lot of people think oh, gee, i didn't get my rights, case dismissed. so we start with that presumption, but now we're getting into this more interesting issue because the justice department is saying well when there's a public safety emergency we don't have to give miranda warnings. this is going to be very, very controversial, and then senator mccain under the ante by saying this is an enemy combatant and you should treat the case in accordance with the rules of war. what that means is mccain is saying the guy doesn't deserve a jury trial. he's going to be, i don't know whether mccain is suggesting he'd be shipped off to guantanamo, which that would be a radical departure from the way justice is handled in the united states, particularly where a naturalized american citizen is involved and at

because if you call it custody, like i said, you have to give miranda warnings. miranda is triggered when a person is in custody, is not able to leave. >> but that means, if they have that person in custody and they haven't read the miranda rights, in theory, that person could just get up and leave. >> no, they have somebody who's willing to be questioned. they have somebody -- you've seen this on television, right? a person willing to come down to the police station and be questioned. if the person is willing to be questioned and could leave if they wanted to, this is the definition, then he's not technically in custody and you don't have to give him miranda warnings. so they may have a situation where they're playing with somebody and somebody's playing with them, but it isn't quite custody. and they don't want to call it that or make it that, because, again, the lawyer walks in. >> i don't know if you've heard, we're looking at pictures to have the federal courthouse there in boston, but they had to evacuate that moments ago. nont know what that's about, and i
